Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH), former President Donald Trump’s choice for his running mate, encapsulates the “American story,” Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) said during a sit-down interview with Breitbart News’s Matthew Boyle at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on Tuesday.
“Yesterday was a great day,” he said, calling Vance a “tremendous senator” for the Buckeye State.
“I mean…he’s the American story. He’s the American dream. He was a guy who — like, humble beginnings, and now gets put on the ticket. I think he’s going to be our next vice president, and it couldn’t go to a better person,” he continued.
When asked if he would be interested in Vance’s open Senate seat should Trump win, Jordan said he is “totally focused on helping my colleagues win,” first pointing to Ohio Senate candidate Bernie Moreno.
